I mean since it's Microsoft now it's not really a big deal, also after they introduced the chat reporting featu6 which was (and still is to an extent) easy to abuse by malicious actors.
I know that debates about chat reporting tend to get very ugly and hostile so I'll just link to videos explaining the problem, rather than dive into a heated debate (I won't debate with people, and I certainly won't respond to ad-hominems or baseless accusations).

Though I will say running a cracked or Offline server is much harder and requires more effort and using an Alternate Service like ely.by to authenticate users means it's harder for people to join, so I know why most people aren't committed to doing it. It's either too much effort or way too limiting.
Here is an alternative Piped link(s):
